These unique solutions deliver the following advantages:

  Cost-effective surveillance systems that can be easily migrated from an analog CCTV system to an IP 

network-based system, making the most of any existing surveillance infrastructure (e.g. coaxial cables, local 
power supplies, matrix switchers, controllers, and video wall monitors)

  Simultaneous transmission of IP HD video and analog SD video (see diagram below)
  Utilization of the advanced features and functionalities offered by IP network cameras 
  Maximum cable length of 1,000 feet (300 m) with an RG-59 coaxial cable*
